Hearty meals that contain greens and goat cheese are fitting for the autumn season. A pasta dish that includes goat cheese and radicchio has significant amounts of protein and essential vitamins such as vitamin C. Goat cheese is also suitable for individuals who are intolerant to lactose.

Penne pasta is best for a dish that features radicchio and goat cheese. The greens should be seasoned with olive oil, garlic and red pepper flakes to balance the bitter taste of radicchio. Salt and chives can also be used to season the pasta dish.

While the dish is suitable for vegetarians, it can be adjusted to suit a number of diets. Adding grilled chicken to the pasta entree adds more protein and B vitamins to the dish. Replacing the goat cheese with mushrooms or bell peppers makes the dinner suitable for vegans. Pasta with radicchio and goat cheese is also a suitable side dish for Thanksgiving, and can easily be paired with turkey and gravy.

Be sure to send me any links to Vimeo or YouTube of the foods you’re cooking this Thanksgiving. I’m looking forward to what Darius Fisher and some of my other friends have up their sleeves this year.
